Welcome to the June, 2025 edition of our monthly newsletter. Thanks to everyone who responded to our question concerning the unrecorded issue of “The People“. While on-line information is still elusive, the likelihood of its connection to a publication of the same title which began several years later appears likely. Again… thanks.
As for this month’s newsletter is concerned, below please find links to: new posts on the History’s Newsstand blog, newly discounted items (at 50% off), “bonus items” which were added to this month’s catalog (#355), and our entire June catalog. There is also an invitation regarding the History’s Newsstand. Enjoy!

INVITATION (revisited)
One of the regular series found on our blog is “SNAPSHOT – YYYY”, where the “Y’s” represent a specific year. The concept is to highlight unusual, unknown, or highly significant events from a particular year. If after perusing the already posted entries you are inspired to share one or more of your own newspapers which you believe would fit in this series, please send a photo and a brief description to me at guy@rarenewspapers.com. Also include whether you would like to be identified (we include your initials, town, and state). Thanks. |
